A couple of big names headed to the rail and failed to advance to Day 2. That list included Marcel Luske, Katja Thater, Keith "The Camel" Hawkins, Dave "El Blondie" Colclough, Barny Boatman, and Nicolas Levi.
Frenchman Arnaud Mattern held the chip lead for most of the afternoon, but it was Annette Obrestad who took control as the day dwindled down. She surged past the 100,000 mark during the last level and ended the day as the unofficial chip leader.
Day 1b begins at 1 PM local time. Check back in with PokerNews.com for live updates.
Mattern:
Opponent:
Board:
to make Mattern a straight, eliminating his opponent and bumping his stack up to 85,000. He's not the clear-cut chip leader, though, as Annette Obrestad has also upped her stack to the 85,000 region.Yikes.
Lacay raised to 2,200 preflop, Norinder reraised and Lacay shoved. Insta-call.
Lacay:
Norinder:
Board:
Ouch.
